Answer:
A
Explanation:
water molecules are combined to make food
1. HCl (H:1, Cl 35.5) ---> 1+35.5 = 36.5
2. FeS (Fe:56, S:32) ---> 56+32 = 88
3. Cl2 (Cl:35.5) ---> 35.5 x 2 = 71
4. CaC03 (Ca:40, C: 12, O: 16) ---> 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100
5. Fe0 (Fe: 56, O: 16) ---> 56+16=72
I want to say addition. But I have a tendency to be wrong
Answer:
C. Gain in electron(s) resulting in a decrease of oxidation number.
Explanation:
Redox reactions are reactions involving transfer of of electron between two species (reduction specie) and (oxidation species) and change resulting in change in oxidation number.
Reduction in terms of redox reaction is the specie that accepts electron(s) and gets "reduced" since its oxidation state has been reduced.
For example
Cl + e- → Cl⁻
The above reaction is an example of reduction reaction taking place in a redox reaction. We can see that Chlorine oxidation state was changed from (0) to (-1) state.
